Real understanding and first-hand experience
Built by the Scott family to serve their wealth and the wealth of families like yours, Sandaire brings deep knowledge to your family’s unique needs.
Our story is your story.
While every family of wealth has their own distinct story, we all share pivotal moments that form part of our family lore, whether in recent times or the distant past. Times of triumph, of tough choices and pioneering paths taken. It’s what makes each family wonderfully unique, but it is also a common bond, irrespective of whether wealth is situated at the first or fifth generation of its lifecycle.Our history
Sandaire’s journey began over a century ago with the pioneering approach and spirited personalities of the Provincial Insurance Company. A path that three generations later – following the sale of Provincial – led to the formation of a family office to meet the investment needs of the Scott family. As expertise widened, so did our offer, creating today’s multi-family office working with extraordinary families to manage their multigenerational wealth needs.
